Objective:To investigate the safety and outcomes of associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (ALPPS) in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The clinical data of HCC patients who underwent hepatectomy at the University of Hongkong-Shenzhen Hospital from April 2014 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. Of 57 HCC patients who were enrolled, there were 43 males and 14 females, aged (51±14) years old. According to the surgical method, the patients were divided into two groups: patients with pre-operative residual liver volume/standard liver volume <30% who underwent ALPPS procedure by anterior approach formed the study group ( n=20), and patients who underwent right hepatectomy with residual liver volume/standard liver volume ≥35% formed the control group ( n=37). Clinicopathological data and prognosis were reviewed and compared between the two groups. The patients were followed up via outpatient service and telephone. Results:There were more patients with well-moderately differentiated HCC in the study group than in the control group, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). All patients in the study group successfully completed two-step hepatectomy. Compared with the control group, the operative duration [644(535, 780) vs. 352 (269, 401) min], intraoperative blood loss [1 650 (1 338, 2 200) vs. 650 (500, 925) ml], and proportion of patients requiring blood transfusion (60.0% vs. 29.7%) were increased in the study group. The difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence of grade III or higher complications between the study group and the control group [30.0% (6/20) vs. 18.9% (7/37), χ 2=0.91, P=0.341]. The 1-, 2- and 3-year overall survival rates were 90.0%, 63.8% and 46.4% respectively, and the corresponding tumor-free survival rates were 53.3%, 35.6%, and 35.6% respectively for the study group. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year overall survival rates were 71.4%, 63.4%, 51.7%, and tumor-free survival rates were 39.0%, 18.5%, 9.3% in the control group respectively. There was no significant difference in the postoperative survival rate and tumor-free survival rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:ALPPS was safe and feasible for treatment of right hepatocellular carcinoma with insufficient residual liver volume, and its survival outcomes was similar with one-stage right hepatectomy for HCC patients.

Objective:To study the effiacious based on our experience of precise anatomical hemi-hepatectomy strictly guided by the middle hepatic vein (MHV) for regional to treat intrahepatic hepatolithiasis.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the data of 47 patients with regional hepatolithiasis treated with hemihepatectomy from July 2015 to July 2019 at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery, The University of Hong Kong-Shenzhen Hospital. The study included 15 males and 32 females, aged (42±15) years. The exposure and preservation of the MHV was included in the precision surgery group ( n=26), and failure to fully expose the MHV or damage to the MHV was included in the control group ( n=21). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss and other surgical data and postoperative complications of the two groups were compared. Results:All patients successfully completed the operation. There was no patient who developed liver failure, and no patient died 90 days after the operations. The operation time (5.2±1.8) h and intraoperative blood loss (620.5±450.8) ml of the precision surgery group were not significantly different from those of the control group (4.9±2.3) h and intraoperative blood loss (760.5±540.2) ml ( P>0.05). A total of 19 patients (40.4%) (7 in the precision surgery group and 12 in the control group) developed 36 post operative complications of various types. The postoperative complication rate in the control group was higher than that in the precision surgery group [47.6%(10/21) vs 19.2% (5/26)], the difference was significant ( P<0.05). All 47 patients were followed-up for 6 to 30 months. For postoperative long-term complications: 5 patients in the control group had residual stones, biliary tract infection, liver abscess, and biliary-enteric anastomosis stenosis with recurrence of stones, and only 2 patients in the precision surgery group were found to have residual stones and biliary-enteric anastomotic stenosis. Stone recurrence, (the incidence of long-term complication) in the control group was significantly higher than that in the precision surgery group [23.8% (5/21) vs 7.7% (2/26)], ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Precise anatomical hemi-hepatectomy strictly guided by MHV for regional hepatolithiasis could more fully remove stones and lesions, and reduced the rate of stone recurrence. It was safe and feasible with favorable efficacy.
